Assessing the forced labor risk of US fruit and vegetable commodities (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Tichenor Blackstone, N., Benoit Norris, C., Robbins, T., Jackson, B., & Sparks, J. L. D. (2020). Assessing the forced labor risk of US fruit and vegetable commodities. In U. Eberle, S. Smetana, & U. Bos (Eds.), Proceedings 12th International Conference on Life Cycle Assessment of Food LCAFood2020: 13-16 October 2020, Berlin Virtually, German (315-320)

Studies on sustainable food consumption to date have largely focused on promoting human health within ecological limits. Much less attention has been paid to social sustainability, in part because of limited data and models. The aim of this research...

Using Recurrent Neural Network for Intelligent Prediction of Water Level in Reservoirs (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Zhang, J., Zhang, Z., Weng, Y., Gosling, S., Yang, H., Yang, C., …Ma, Q. (2020). Using Recurrent Neural Network for Intelligent Prediction of Water Level in Reservoirs. . https://doi.org/10.1109/COMPSAC48688.2020.0-108

© 2020 IEEE. Water resources management over long term has faced a great challenge due to the increasing demands on water from a growing number of population and a huge variance of water usage in different time and place. Therefore, a new time series... Read More about Using Recurrent Neural Network for Intelligent Prediction of Water Level in Reservoirs.

What's for dinner? Gendered decision-making and energy efficient cookstoves in Benue State, North Central Nigeria (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Atagher, P., Clifford, M., Jewitt, S., & Ray, C. (2017). What's for dinner? Gendered decision-making and energy efficient cookstoves in Benue State, North Central Nigeria. In C. Brebbia, & J. Sendra (Eds.), WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, volume 224, (101-111). https://doi.org/10.2495/ESUS170101

Solid biomass collection such as firewood rests mostly on women and children in settings where traditional fuels dominates household energy choices. A 2015 World Health Organisation (WHO) report estimated that 3.5 million people globally rely on soli... Read More about What's for dinner? Gendered decision-making and energy efficient cookstoves in Benue State, North Central Nigeria.

Exploring the capabilities of Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM) (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Priestnall, G., Goulding, J., Smith, A., & Arss, N. (2017). Exploring the capabilities of Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM).

This paper explores the broad capabilities of physical landscape models when augmented by projection, termed Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM). This includes experiences of developing PARM displays in public settings such as museums and visit... Read More about Exploring the capabilities of Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM).

Interactions with Projected Augmented Relief Models (PARM) (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Arss, N., Smith, A. D., & Priestnall, G. (2017). Interactions with Projected Augmented Relief Models (PARM).

Techniques for enhancing physical landscape models with dynamic maps and imagery, termed Projected Augmented Relief Models (PARM), are part of a revival of interest in the power of relief models as tools for geographic visualization. This method enab... Read More about Interactions with Projected Augmented Relief Models (PARM).

Gendered priorities for ‘improved’ sanitation: insights from Kisumu Kenya (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Jewitt, S., & Ryley, H. (2015). Gendered priorities for ‘improved’ sanitation: insights from Kisumu Kenya.

This paper explores how official concepts of ‘improved’ sanitation often fail to reflect the priorities of female users. As the health benefits associated with improved sanitation cannot be fully realised until all potential user groups habitually ut...

Delivering and evaluating the multiple flood risk benefits in Blue-Green Cities: an interdisciplinary approach (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Lawson, E., Thorne, C., Ahilan, S., Allen, D., Arthur, S., Everett, G., …Wright, N. (2014). Delivering and evaluating the multiple flood risk benefits in Blue-Green Cities: an interdisciplinary approach. . https://doi.org/10.2495/friar140101

A Blue-Green City aims to recreate a naturally-oriented water cycle while contributing to the amenity of the city by bringing water management and green infrastructure together. The Blue-Green approach is more than a stormwater management strategy ai...

When worlds collide: combining Ordnance Survey and Open Street Map data (2010)
Conference Proceeding
Anand, S., Morley, J., Jiang, W., Du, H., Hart, G., & Jackson, M. (2010). When worlds collide: combining Ordnance Survey and Open Street Map data.

The context of this paper is the progress of national and international spatial data infrastructures such as the UK Location Programme and INSPIRE, contrasted against crowd-sourced geospatial databases such as Open Street Map. While initiatives such... Read More about When worlds collide: combining Ordnance Survey and Open Street Map data.
